It turned out that there was such a story behind it.
Lin Mengya looked at Hou Yuetian and her expression gradually softened.
She nodded. Maybe what Hou Yuetian said was not entirely true.
But she knew that even if he wanted to find a reason to deceive her, he would never use her mother as a joke.
"Since this is the case, let's travel together. Actually, it may not be a good thing for you to travel with us. You should have seen that we are also in danger these few days. "
Since she said this, it meant that at least Lin Mengya would not treat Hou Yuetian as an enemy.
Hou Yuetian understood what she meant. He suddenly got up and bowed deeply to her.
"Thank you, Miss. If we can reach Dongxia safely, I, Hou Yuetian, will do my best as a host and go through fire and water for you."
Hou Yuetian was a smart man. He naturally knew that if he continued to travel with the brother and sister, they would face many difficulties.
But it was undeniable that they were also in danger now.
Even if he traveled alone, he might not be able to reach Dongxia safely.
He might as well travel with the brother and sister. Moreover, they were not ordinary people.
They had countless capable subordinates. If he were to travel with them, his team would have a higher chance of winning.
"You're welcome. Oh yes, what medicine are you looking for, Mr. Hou?"
Knowing that Lin Mengya was proficient in medicine, Hou Yuetian did not hide anything. He immediately told her about his mother's illness, the prescription, and the missing medicine.
"It turns out that your mother's heart was attacked by the poison because she had exhausted all her efforts. I guess the doctor who wrote this prescription must have used some nourishing methods to strengthen your mother's physique? The prescription is good, but I think if we can find a hot spring and soak in the powder every day, your mother's body will not be affected by the medicine. In this way, your mother's body will not be affected by the medicine. "
Lin Mengya had always liked people who were straightforward. She admired Hou Yuetian's behavior of showing her the prescription without hesitation.
She kindly pointed out the only small flaw in the prescription. Who would have thought that Hou Yuetian would be more and more amazed by this sickly but intelligent young girl.
This prescription was written by a famous doctor in the Eastern Summer Country.
An ordinary doctor would not be able to point out the flaws in the treatment.
Just by looking at it, one would be amazed by the doctor's amazing skills.
Although she was young, she seemed to know a lot about medicine. At this moment, Hou Yuetian was even more curious about her true identity.
What was this girl's background?
"Don't look at me like that. I can only tell you one thing. My teacher is one of the top medical experts in the world. As for the rest, I think Mr. Hou is a smart person, right? "
She had no intention of showing off, so she tilted her head and smiled playfully at Hou Yuetian.
Perhaps it was because of her mother that she respected all the mothers in the world a little more.
However, the Empress was an exception. She would do anything for her children.
"In that case, I understand."
They nodded at each other. Everyone knew what was going on.
No one was completely honest to the other, so naturally, they could only get the truth mixed with the truth.
The two of them were relatively honest, which made the atmosphere between the two of them a lot more relaxed.
Hou Yuetian did not know why Lin Mengya would care so much about this matter.
However, he also had a rather profound analysis of this matter.
At that moment, the two of them exchanged their views on this matter.
"Witch Wang and her family were killed, and so was Madam Huang. It seems that someone wants to kill them to keep their mouth shut. "
Hou Yuetian's expression froze, and there was a hint of seriousness in his eyes.
Even on the battlefield, there were many people who had no choice but to take someone's life.
Moreover, this matter was full of the smell of a strange conspiracy.
"Yes, someone does want to kill them to keep their mouth shut. And what the old man said today made me have a bold conjecture. "
Apart from that matter, Witch Wang and Madam Huang had nothing to do with each other.
In other words, the reason why they were killed could only be related to this matter.
The old man said that the Mountain God only allowed families without girls and unmarried boys to leave this place.
She could not help but think of the strange thing that happened to Madam Huang.
Madam Huang had a miscarriage three years ago, and even her uterus had mysteriously disappeared.
In that case, were the other twelve families that had died also related to this matter?
Apart from that, who had sent the old man who had told them all this news? What was his purpose?
All of this was like a mystery to her.
As long as she could solve the clues of this mystery, she believed that all the problems would be solved.
This was what Lin Mengya thought. That was why she agreed to let Qinghu inquire about the missing and reappearing subordinates.
But she did not know what the result was.
Qinghu had been gone for so long. Did he encounter any trouble?
Thinking about it, it would be very difficult to find someone who could trouble Qinghu, a master, in such a small place.
The two of them talked for a long time, and Lin Mengya frequently looked out of the window.
Gradually, some doubts arose in her heart. Even if Qinghu was hindered by something, he should at least send someone to inform her, right?
She waited from dusk to midnight, and felt a little uneasy. Qinghu's figure appeared outside the window.
To Lin Mengya's surprise, Qinghu's face was frighteningly ugly.
After entering the room, he did not say anything. He did not even look at Hou Yuetian, and quickly packed up Lin Mengya's things.
She knew that something unexpected must have happened for him to behave so abnormally.
Lin Mengya did not stop him, but just smiled apologetically at Hou Yuetian. Hou Yuetian was also very tactful. He took his military book, nodded at Lin Mengya, and left their room.
"Are we leaving now?"
Lin Mengya looked at Qinghu, who did not say a word, and the uneasiness in her heart gradually increased.
If Qinghu behaved like this, it could only mean one thing.
"Yes, we have to leave now. We have to leave before they find us. "
Lin Mengya's heart skipped a beat, and she was stunned for a moment.
Even though Qinghu did not say clearly, she still knew who the "they" he mentioned was.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Mengya just casually handed all the things within reach to Qinghu.
Qinghu raised his head, and saw that she seemed to have acquiesced, and could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"I thought you would …"
Lin Mengya shook her head with a wry smile, and helped Qinghu pack up the things.
"Did you think that I would stubbornly refuse to leave, and clamor to find out the truth, and then let you and me walk into the tiger's mouth? I'm not stupid. The things here have been going on for a long time. Even if we find out the truth now, we may not be able to solve it completely. In this case, why should we risk our lives? What's more, we can't do anything, but it doesn't mean that others can't, right? "
Who else could make Qinghu so afraid, and even run away after hearing it, except for the scourges in the Candle Dragon Cult?
However, once the Candle Dragon Cult was involved, it meant that there must be an unknown cruel conspiracy in this town.
Although she could not find out the truth in person, it did not mean that the government of Dajin would not take action.
Although the Candle Dragon Cult was powerful, it might not really dare to intervene in the operation of a country openly.
After all, water could carry a boat, but it could also overturn it.
If they were forced into a corner, it would not be easy for several countries to unite to deal with them.
But now, if they wanted to get rid of her and Qinghu quietly, it would be a very easy thing.
Without the title of Princess Yu, she would no longer be the target of the whole Dajin.
In this way, she was just a dispensable existence to the Candle Dragon Cult.
It seemed that it was not impossible for them to kill her conveniently.
Soon, they packed up their things. Lin Mengya only asked Qinghu to inform Hou Yuetian, and even left some clothes and soft clothes directly in the inn.
They did not alarm anyone. Under the cover of the night, they jumped down from the second floor of the inn through the window.
Lin Mengya was heavily wrapped in a long black robe. She was held by Qinghu, and they ran on the empty street.
Tightly pressed against Qinghu's chest, Lin Mengya was a little nervous.
The more she understood the power of the Candle Dragon Cult, the more she understood her insignificance and incompetence.
She didn't know what she had done in her previous life. Why did she inexplicably get involved with the Candle Dragon Cult in this life?
While she was secretly lamenting, she felt that Qinghu's footsteps gradually stopped.
A moment later, she was gently placed on a carriage covered with cotton blankets.
"We'll be safe after a good sleep."
After putting her down, Qinghu turned around and rode on his horse.
Lin Mengya sat in the carriage obediently. Through the window, she saw that the hooves of the horses of the people around them were wrapped with thick quilts.
In this way, even in the dark, it would still be quiet.
After Qinghu, who was walking in the front, waved his hand, the convoy immediately moved forward.
Except for the sound of breathing, there was no other sound, indicating that this was a team that was about to leave.
Lying in the carriage, although this carriage was not as luxurious as the previous one.
But because there were soft quilts everywhere in the carriage, Lin Mengya did not feel any discomfort.
Soon, the carriage drove out of the range of the town. So far, no one had found any trace of them.
But she knew that it was not the time to rest assured.
Because the Mountain God Temple, which determined the life and death of all the people in the town, was not far ahead.
This was the only way out of the town. Otherwise, they could go back to the village where Granny Tian and the others were.
